I do not understand why it matter what the seller said, he lied, you did not check into it. Your fault.
The host provides a service, one which is in the majority of all cases paid up front. Someone, regardless of whom, did not pay for the time from March but sites apparently stayed online anyways?! Nice of the host to leve them up. You used the sites and, hopefully, earned from them during that time. Now man up and pay for services provided to you.
It is not the fault of the host that you got scammed. They do not owe you anything. Otherwise that would be the best trick ever, erveryone start "selling" sites to each other and always "show chat proof" that some random guy "promised" hosting was paid for nine more months.
I know it sucks, but clearly you must hear how ridiculous it sounds yourself?!
Why would or should the host work to compensate you? They are losing twice already, both a customer and for a few months of service.
If you want and value the sites, pay for the services YOU have used and profited from. Get the server back up and move the sites.
Pay the host, they have done nothing wrong!
